I think that was the point. This psychic looks like a BIG fraud from the link above (For what it is worth, I have not done research on her or anything, so it's a first reaction thing I guess lol.), so I think perhaps they got together so Injustice could sell more posters and t-shirts.

I do however love that house painting that Ronnie did *not!* do, it almost looks like a Van Gough, which is really cool.

You're suggesting that Tracey and Jackie got together on this in order for them to sell copies of Ronnie's artwork? So that would mean Jackie is cool with Tracey disparaging her reputation in order to get a cut from the profits of a few items, which would likely net her maybe $100 or so. Doesn't seem likely. I haven't listened to the interview yet (found ants and am cleaning my kitchen), but I doubt Jackie mentions that Ronnie's artwork is for sale during the interview or anything...

Perhaps...just a random thought.

I just always find it odd that frauds are surrounded by other frauds and cast offs from society. Maybe she will allow here to become Ronnie's personal psychic lol.

Sorry to revive an old thread, but this seems to be the most appropriate place for my questions.

First, I am a long-time lurker and "fan" if you will of the DeFeo case...I have been through the rounds of lurking here, getting banned from Tracey's various boards, etc. and have followed every twist and turn and new story from Ronnie for years...but then I took a break from Amityville and came back only to discover new and interesting players getting involved, namely Jackie Barrett.

I actually saw her for the first time on some reality show for psychics and she seemed, ummm...trying to be polite...not the best at what she claims to do...then, and seems even less credible to me now after reading her sniping back and forth with Tracey. BUT...one thing she mentioned seems true! And that brings me to my questions.

Jackie Barrett said that Tracey would not be married to Ronnie "for long" and that he was divorcing her. A quick search on the New York State civil case website shows that this is actually TRUE! Ronnie apparently filed for divorce 8/17/2010 (and the court appearance is 10/08 if anyone wants to send their support for either side). Here is the link: http://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/webcivi ... ch?param=P . It won't let me post search results, but just plug the DeFeo name in there.

So now that I know that part is true, is there any truth to the rest of it? Has Ronnie give Jackie Barrett "rights" to his story, and is he really "working" with her? In other words, is the rest of what she had to say (except for any psychic abilities or having solved any crimes) true as well?

Just when I thought things were dormant, they go and get interesting again...

You know, Dan, that was so long ago and so short-lived that I don't even remember. It was almost surely a variation on my first name but I got banned after a single post almost every time. It was 2005 or so back when Tracey was going on about how the autopsy reports proved that Dawn was involved because of the state of rigor mortis at the time of autopsy. I apparently had the unmitigated gall to point out that what she was saying was absolutely NOT what the autopsy report said, and that it was there in black and white for anyone to read (she then quickly took it down if I recall correctly). Basically Tracey "interpreted" the report for all of us and in doing so only showed her lack of understanding not only of the medical terms used but also of the biological processes involved. I was not rude about it or anything, but simply pointed this out and asked if that changed her opinion at all and if there was anything else to support her claims. (Instant ban from thenightexposed board). I forget what led to being banned from the injusticesofamityville board but I am sure it was something similar...an innocent question that I was genuinely curious about and not meant to come down on one side or another. Tracey certainly did have a temper back in the day... LOL

Yes, it does seem that Tracey and Ronnie are getting divorced by the looks of that link you gave. But I have no insider info on anything else relating to that.

It was inevitable; but the divorce doesn't interest me as much as the fact that something that Jackie Barrett said was true. Does this mean the other things she said were true as well? I know you probably don't know either, but is she really working on a book with Ronnie? And more importantly does this mean there will soon be a new, new version of what happened that night?

That was back in July. I never did get around to listening to it...

I've not listened to it either. I just can't seem to muster up the enthusiasm to do it, but I guess I probably should if I still want to be "informed", huh?

Yeah, I pretty much got the same treatment from Tracey on her boards. Oh well.

I don't have any info on Jackie Barret or any supposed book deals or anything. Last I heard about was that some guy in the UK (Steven Morris) was going to do a book on Ronnie, in conjunction and cooperation with Tracey. Tracey was all excited about it and posted the proposal and chapter listing on her website. According to that chapter listing, the book was going to have chapters devoted to us (this board) as well. That was a couple of years back. Don't know if that's still in the works or not. Probably not...

It is incredible that anyone even gives this woman the time of day. How outwardly phoney can someone be? Wow, a missionary with Padre Pio at 5 years old? Man some people have no sense at all. Yeah, I was born in 1963 and I was the Real Beatles Lead guitarist (in the studio LOL, only in the year 1965 thought, Lol).
